Well, you DO know that you must have a well scoured plow, to get it to pull properly, and any 3 or 4 bittom plow pulls like an anchor if it is not shiney as NEW chrome....!! Dad and I have 4-14"s--semi-mounted..his came NEW with it, and NEVER has it seen any ground it will not pull it in--in 2nd gear. (Except for DRY Black-Jack that breaks the coverboards off)..!! We have some "Yellow Wax" here in Ohio, and I defy anyone to find any Harder ground to plow... Turning alfalfa sod is not a problem, although you can actually feel the roots being pulled...!!! You MUST have ALL 4 tires Loaded as full as you can get them, and then put another 100 lbs on the front--if it is a narrow-front... Like I said, even if the plow is shiney to start with, it will take a few rounds to get it "Scoured"..and then it will pull easier... I have a 3-Point conversion I use for a 3-point Woods and blade, --it hooks into the snapcoupler, and would work the Traction-Booster,what kind do you have..?? Setting the plow up to pull right takes some time... Coulter and rear Heel settings are most important settings..the rest asr pretty easy.. Be sure to have Mouldboard extensions and coverboards, to cover sod and trash better..!! These WD-45's have so much torque, that they really "Bear-Down" on a load... I never liked a 3-14...I needed to run in 3rd gear, to even have the governors working...and then, I was using More fuel per acre than the 4-14 did per acre.... Yes, we plow 7" deep any and everywhere..!! Have some fun..you WILL need to steer with the brakes in tough spots....!!! Once it is scoured good, you should be in 2nd gear and running fine...
